I have to say after seeing the pics of the GTO, the previous Chevelle and now this Chevelle, the attention to detail and the high quality of workmanship is some of the BEST that I have seen.

Im actually not familiar with that product. I tend to keep things simple and purchase products from either the Keystone company for things like lacquer primer and other consumables like lacquer, and then work my way through the ppg and omni or shop lines of ppg for all remaining epoxy primers, topcoats, basecoats, and clears.

300 Deluxe Rubber Floor Question?
I was curious if anyone could provide some explination about a few things related to the 300 deluxe cars. Upon getting into the car I noticed that there were small twisted shank nails pounded into the floor board area of the car in various spots below say the kick panels, along where the sill plates go, and even along the back edge of the interior where the floor carpet/matt would have ended just under where the seat frame attaches.
The nails look very factory to me, so im curious as to was this a way to hold down some sub insulation? Where these nails used to actually tack down the rubber floor, or is this just a case of something odd happened to the car during its life? Pictures showing some areas where I found them. |

Fixing Speaker Mounts in the Deck
Seems like just about every car I restore someone has butchered the speaker holes. Pretty easy fix. Always nice using original metal as it fits into place with no massaging or mismatching of holes and profiles.

I've owned a few post cars, all having the rubber floor and have never seen that before.
One had the original floor covering and I was the first to disturb it......nothing but the same methods that carpet would receive to keep it down. Nice speaker fix. |

I had to fix the speaker holes in my dad's '65 Nova. I did it the same way you did.
